What a disapointment , to begin with the 1600
dollar Brembo brake option was only on the front
the rear had one piston Ford calipers, about
eleven inch rotors,the hid headlights cost about 600.00
A four hundred dollar 3:73 gear option
an appearance option[quarter window covers, and quarter
panel air vents] can't remember the cost , but it was exsessive
The paint was terrible or as Charles Barkley
would say terble , the drivers side door had orange
peel worse than any car I ever saw, the passenger side was barely
acceptable
All for 38K
Not really knocking the car itself, I actually liked it
just the quality and costs for options included on
my 2SS/RS SURPRISED ME

1. The RS package on a 2ss is $1200 bucks. How much of that is the HID's? The darker tailights and painted mouldings must cost $20 bucks and the darker painted wheels another $20. That leaves a lot of money for the HID headlights.

2. My paint isn't the best either, but I don't really care. My gas cap and rear bumper are just a c-hair off from the rest of the car. It isn't that noticeable, unless you get right up to it and are looking for it. But, that's the way it came from the factory.

3. Price. My 2SS, auto, polished wheels and sunroof was MSRP for 37,100. Add on the RS package and my car would have been MSRP 38,300. I surely didn't pay MSRP, but that's what my car cost.
